thesweetscience Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 Can anyone offer any comments about this amp? It is very affordable for a tube amp and gets good reviews on Musicians Friend. I am skeptical though because of the price and have yet to find a local dealer with one in stock. Any thoughts?? Also if you have played it what cabinet, effects, etc... was used?

rushfanNlv Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 (edited) I haven't played the valve king but I have played the classic series. The classics are great amps. Nice, tube tone and lots of gain. You may consider this series as well. Here are some reviews of the valve king on Harmonycentral which is usually a great source of reviews when looking at buying new gear. They also have reviews on the head and cabinet version. Also check out www.guitargeek.com and www.thegearpage.net for more reviews. Bottom line IMO is that Peavey makes a great product. It's considered a working mans type company and that seems about right to me. Edited July 29, 2006 by rushfanNlv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesweetscience Posted August 6, 2006 Author Share Posted August 6, 2006 Thanks for the comment rushfan! After giving some thought I think my budget will probably lead toward something like a line6 Flextone III. If I go with the Peavey VK and then get a cab and effects I would be looking at around $1300 and I would like to stay under a grand. If I ever find one to try out maybe I will change my mind.
